There may be better amps for different headphones, but as an all around amp it is exceptional.
Guess I'll chime in after 20 pages of hype.
There are better amps for your headphones (the Elear).
I've been listening to Jotun for over a week now (got it last Tuesday), my impressions are still the same.
There are $1k-2k amps that would outperform it, and $2-$4k amps that would outperform those in turn.
I don't own any < $1k amps, so I can't say how the Jotun stacks up against its peers.
I can say at $400 it's an exceptional amp, but there are many options that are better for more $$.
I saw someone comparing the Jotun to the Ragnarok, saying the Jotun was better....
Just because you own it, doesn't mean you have to comparemtalize for yourself why it's better than anything on the market.
I don't know the Ragnarok, but if the performance is like any of my other similarly priced amps, it would crap on the Jotun.
Just looking at this objectively, I own the Jotun to. I love it, @ $400. Just posting this so any head high-end head-fi'ers can get a different take.
